Fall favorites are delicious raw, roasted and ground.

Full Description

Hazelnuts or American filberts yield small, edible egg-shaped nuts, around 1/2 inch long, enclosed in brown husks. Nuts mature and drop to the ground in late summer to early fall. Hazelnuts are relished by wildlife and are superb raw or roasted, or ground into a paste. The multi-stemmed tree or shrub is ornamental, with yellow catkins in spring, crisp green leaves in summer and vibrant red to yellow fall foliage. Harvest is often 2 to 3 years from planting. Plants are totally resistant to Eastern Filbert Blight. Includes two varieties for cross-pollination.

Hmmm...A Little SmallI was expecting 2 bare root trees. What I got was 2 plants in a 3" pot about 12" high. They were healthy with sprouting green leaves along the single branch. The description said they will fruit in 2-3 years from planting. I don't know how fast these trees grow in one year but I can not imagine these little guys bearing fruit in 2-3 years time. 3 stars because they were healthy but tiny. Burpee should have specified they were not bare root trees but 3" potted plants. I will probably not plant these in the ground yet since they are so tiny. Will see how they grow outside in a pot and decide later.
